Knox Americana lords hat. This was a very kind gift from @PanosChris
I have a few lords hats, while I don’t wear them often, I always smile when I put one on. Thank you, Panos!

Great color(s); the "Lords Hat" style really suits you!

Tis one of the greatest of greens.
Great subtle contrast.

I expressed my thoughts on this one in the Stingy Brim thread, so I'll keep it brief here - I like it a lot!

How about some pine green with your morning coffee?

During my early morning dog soirée I wore a Stetson Playboy. The pine green is a unique felt hue. Arriving home I thought it would be interesting to have a Whippet and Stratoliner in the same felt hue join for a group pic this morning.

Our low sun combined with the warmth and humidity have the pics not accurately presenting the colors. I think they do a mostly good job portraying this small part of the history of Stetsons hats from the same decade.

Cheers. Be safe, be strong and see you on the streets soon, Eric -

Pine green goodness on a Thursday.

I headed out to do yard chores and thought I would wear my pine green Stetson Whippet. I grabbed the pine green hat off the hat rack and headed out. I glanced at my reflection on the way out and it was a different hat - a Royal DeLuxe Stetson Turf Club. Right color, different hat.

My lack of detail allows me to showcase the two hats together.

Pine green fedoras are fortunately abundant on my hat rack.

Cheers. Be safe, be strong and see you on the streets soon, Eric -

Just joined the green hat club

Here's my Stetson Roadster in Sage green color.

I wasn't sure if I was going to like this color. But the more I wear it, the more I like it.

It varies from green to brown in appearance depending on the light..

Wolfbrae custom in bottle green:

That Wolfbrae certainly looks good and you wear it with aplomb, that's probably why it's so appealing.
My wife bought me a hat to wear to a wedding, not long before the pandemic struck last year, in the end I wore a black fedora. Why should I feel self conscious about wearing a green hat?

I love green. But then I love at least some of the shades of most colors.

spring has arrived in Central California and the green hat just seemed right.

We all have our insecurities. No matter how much success we achieve, how wealthy we become, or how old we get most of us never completely shed all of our insecurities. Heck, some of us have a hard time wearing full-cut trousers and spectator shoes.


for those still in the grip of winter, here’s a little California springtime:

Well said, cheered me up no end. Thank you. Springtime in California reminds me that the wonderful azalea shrub in my garden, although not in bloom, has it's buds all ready to burst open.

Now that is green! Cheers for spring green.

I realized I never put my Northwest Hat Co. Riley in this thread. This is Winchester’s forest green, and definitely lighter than bottle green.

The hat is much darker out of direct sunlight, but not as dark as bottle green.

I can't remember if I ever posted a hat in this thread or not.

The hat is superb, that particular hue of green has an aesthetic way of subtly changing as it catches the sunlight. Really impressive. I have sent a link of your Riley to a good friend of mine, his Riley is a 1940's car. When he sees your hat it won't just be his car that's green.
